The sensor mats in the car have failed at under65K. The models 2005-2007 had a recall on these mats but it doesn't pertain to the 2008 model in which I am experiencing the exact same problem. Additionally, under 65K miles I have had to replace both forward window motors and now the back right motor. The logic 7 sound amp also went bad in 2012.

I started my car in the morning and there was a yellow "air-bag" indicator on my dashboard with a message "driver restraint system fault". it wasn't there the night before. Couple of days later, I took the car to dealer and they diagnosed that "driver seat mat sensor and control box" failed and needed to be replaced for $1,237. BMW had a recall on seat mat sensor on prior year models and now its occurring in other year models as well.

The very same issue that BMW has recalled their 2006 - 2007 7 series is affecting my 2008 7 series and BMW is refusing the fix the issue. brandilawblog.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/BMW-recall.pdf the front passenger seat occupant detection mat that determines if and how the passenger frontal air bag should deploy in a crash may fatigue and develop cracks which could lead to a system failure. Consequence: Should the system fail, in the event of a crash, the front passenger air bags would be deactivated, increasing the risk of personal injury. NHTSA campaign number: 13V-564 components: Air bags air bags:frontal:sensor/control module.

Passenger detection mat faulty causing the passenger-side airbag to deactivate and the airbag warning light to illuminate. In 2008 these detection mats were recalled for BMW 7-series through 2006 however they were not recalled on 2008 models. Dealer requires $1.3K to repair.
